Five dollars is requested to pay for transportation for one year. Fifty books will be sent for three months when these will be exchanged for the same number making a total of 200 books a year which will be for the use of the public. Half the sum has been subscribed. Small contributions are solicited from any one living in adjacent neighborhoods and can be handed in to Mr. Yeckley or any Epworth League member.
